More Super Mean ‘Liz Becton’ E-mails!

We have EMAIL PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE that Rep. Jim McDermott’s executive assistant/office manager/scheduler/pet dragon Elizabeth “Liz” Becton, the Meanest Lady in DC, was not simply having a “bad day” when she went nuts on someone, over e-mail, who mistakenly saluted her as “Liz.” Below are two more of Liz Becton’s run-ins with e-mail, in which she type-screams at entire listservs about GETTING THE LUNCH LADY’S NAME RIGHT, and swears to destroy a Mole scheduler who once leaked stuff to your Wonkette.

First: Us. Hooray!

Last May, your Wonkette posted some wacky e-mails that were sent on the House Democratic schedulers’ listserv from a couple of staffers (names redacted!) asking comical questions along the lines of, “Does anyone know what type of store one would buy ‘groceries’ at?” After the post went up, a retaliatory e-mail went out to the same listserv from some new irate scheduler, swearing violence.

What kind of nasty, petty, poorly written (Did these people graduate from middle school to high school?) site is www.wonkette.com? And what a base, narcissistic, illiterate group of readers they have! I will never venture to that site again. It was a total waste of my time. However, this email is for the mole among us. You are a poor excuse for a human being. You are not a team player. If I ever find out who you are, I will gladly advertise that it was you who forwarded the emails to the low-rent wonkette site. I will further inform the Speaker’s Office, Standards on Official Conduct, and all the other appropriate offices of what you did. And if you got paid for it, my lowly, putrid, little wonkette reader, you have committed a crime and you will be punished for it when you are found. I have contacted Telecom and I have informed them of what has happened and since it’s a quiet day, they are checking all the forwarded emails from this list serve.

And to my team players and fellow schedulers, I apologize that I had to include you on this email. This email was intended for the lowly loser among us.

Most of Liz’s comments about Wonkette are correct. But it does become somewhat easier to read once you realize we’re writing in Farsi.

It’s perfectly understandable that she’d be furious when e-mails from her listserv were leaking to illiterate liar weblogs, but who writes like this on a professional Capitol Hill listserv? Who talks to colleagues as though it’s a war game? Liz Becton does, because she’s the meanest lady in DC.

NEXT: This episode doesn’t need any background information, so off we go ….

Many of you likely know D___ B___, who has been a cashier in the Longworth Cafeteria for decades. Wednesday morning D____ was suspended without pay (or fired by some accounts) for being $9 short at her register. This has outraged many of us who have seen her virtually every day for years. She is certainly one of the most beloved cafeteria workers and her dedication to customer service is exceptional. On Tuesday, we hope to join in a show of support for D___ by boycotting the cafeterias. Since all the cafeterias are owned by the Restaurant Associates we ask that you avoid all of them that day, but we realize that’s difficult during a day we’re in session. Please, if nothing else avoid Longworth.

The woman who was SUSPENDED (not fired) was D____ C____. I have communication between my COS and the COS of the CAO’s office confirming those two facts.

Although the email was sent with good intentions, the facts are wrong. I’m all for supporting someone who was wronged, please know that D___ C____, the woman who was SUSPENDED not fired, will be represented by her union regarding this matter.

Again, the lady’s name is D____ C____ and she was NOT YET FIRED. She was SUSPENDED.

Hey hobospacesjunkie! Liz wanted me to tell you that she’s got the cup of hot fat and head of Alfredo Garcia that you ordered, and that you can use the first to help shove the second up your puckered little ass. KTHXBAI!

SayItWithWookies

I don’t know where Ms. Becton finds the time to write so many vitriolic emails, as I’m sure most of her day is spent picking the sinews of eviscerated underlings from between her fangs.

Why has she not been promoted to work at Gitmo?
Also, this bitch violates all ethics rules for true gatekeepers, and I would send her sorry ass packing.

My email writing campaign to Liz starts immediately. She’ll be delighted to hear from me, I’m sure. I think I’ll start with asking for advise. You see I have problems in dealing with “people.”

Oh Lizzy-Bizzy. You do the same hilarious thing my students do when they want their essays to sound important. The inappropriately substitute uncommon for common words sort of haphazardly, resulting in bizarre constructions like “I will never venture to that site again.” OK Magellan, but I’d suggest ending ill-advised ventures through the thesaurus as well. Sincerely, the prof who always gave you C’s for some mysterious reason.

Wow…I think Liz is my boss.

who mistakenly saluted her as “Liz.”

There’s a lot of that kind of sniping going around. Boxer went full-tilt postal and demanded to be called “Senator” instead of “Ma’am” at a contentious congressional hearing.

I was really getting into those emails, then I remembered I was illiterate and stopped.

19kevin8

I’ll bet she straps one on regularly, so that she can enjoy being on the pitching end of the buttsecks.

Tommmcatt

This is really too easy to snark on. She’s done most of the work herself.

For the record, I graduated middle school sometime around 1982, back when staff members of our elected representatives realized that they too were public servants and had a modicum of grace and class, to say nothing of a smidgen of humility.

And I don’t really know if she’d be so much help for a WARBLOG. You’d get ready to do some warrin, and she’d be having some screaming email fight about whether or not “trucknutz” should be capitalized and copyrighted.

[re=343098]Barrett808[/re]: And it’s funny that amid all the flying fur, that Gingrich got off scott-free for explicitly breaking the agreement he’d made with the House Ethics Committee, as shown in that conference call. But then, who expects Newt Gingrich, that human underwear skidmark, to behave ethically? I’m sure the Republicans involved were laughing at the public’s naïvete.

“I have contacted Telecom and I have informed them of what has happened and since it’s a quiet day, they are checking all the forwarded emails from this list serve.”

Ha, yeah, Liz, I’m sure the IT people were working real hard on that — uhh, Telecom? Are they forwarding from their voicemail to Wonkette?

Let me put it this way, they don’t check forwarded emails and perhaps they were PRETENDING to know how to check forwarded emails and pretended that they checked for THAT forwarded email. They did YOU a disservice.

In the future, you should be VERY careful about such things. People like to brag about their email forward checking in DC. It’s a past time for some. It’s also dangerous to email, as you have just found out.

I just don’t think Liz gets us at all.

Maybe she should trot over to Jesus General for a while. That would have her blood pressure squirting out of her ears.

No true Republican would ever act like this, so she must be a RINO. Once the party is purged of all moderates we can collapse the BIG TENT of BIG GOVERNMENT and Hussein 0bomba will be defeated and President Palin can rule, forever, the end.

[re=343181]S.Luggo[/re]: It’s actually upwards of $60K a year, enough that she should have a higher level of professionalism… But you’re right. She is a nobody who is a low level staffer, and therefore she should shut the fuck up and quit acting like queen shit of fuck mountain.

StoneAge

I would love to meet this Liz Bechton in real life. I mean, what does one who routinely flies off the handle like that look like? Working in her office must be like living in East Germany circa 1979. As a sociological specimen she sounds fascinating.

[re=343181]S.Luggo[/re]: Didin’t we figure out in the other thread that she makes more like $60k? Not that it matters too much – she’s still a relative nobody.

Of course, now Olbermann has made her “famous” with one of his trying-too-hard comedy videos, so hey, raises all around?

Back in school, all the children picked on
a poor little girl named Elizabeth Becton
They called her Lizzie, Lizard and Liz
Because you all know that’s how school is
Perhaps our poor Elizabeth
was sometimes known as lizard breath
or if they were being especially mean
they might have called her Lizterine
Betsy Wetsy, Betty Boop
she came to hate the whole damn group
“You’re base, illiterate and narcissistic!”
You could say she went ballistic
and that is how she came to be
the meanest lady in D.C.!

Lizzie,

Being such a Washington powerlady and all, wearing your plastic badge to the grocery store to impress the vast unwashed (I saw you), you should know better than trying to mudwrestle with the Wonketeers. Better men than you have tried, and failed.

Did you break your dildo? Is that what’s got you so pissed off? Do you know there’s a world out there that is big and round and populated by millions of people who don’t give a damn about you? We Wonkettes may be the only friends you have left. Sleep well tonight, Liz. We will never abandon you.

say what you will, when the next “big one” happens i want LIZ on my side. you know , on the side of america, sorry LIZ, i meant the U. S. A. , LIZ calm down! i meant the united states of america… sorry LIZ,it was never my intention to…awwww fuck it.

RoscoePColtraine

Liz Liz Liz,

Didn’t you learn anything from recess? NEVER let the boys know what bothers you or they will tease you mercilessly. It’s irresistible. Watching you flip out and issue lame threats like, “I’m gonna tell” or “I’m gonna sue” just makes it all the more fun.

One other thing I’ve noticed over the years is that republicans tend to have very little regard for trial lawyers when they’re oh, say, suing an insurance company to pay the guy who’s paralyzed for life; or suing a doctor who took out the wrong liver (or something) – but call them names or something lame and it’s “I’ll see you in COURT!”

But we are out of okra oil. Stop by the store and get some of that oil, $3.99 for a whole quart. Yes, the purple kind. You should have done so earlier, like I told you. Do I have to do everything myself? You think you’re the only girl in Washington that I can have on the side. They all want me, you bitch! Damn, you piss me off.

Confession time, since it’s late and nobody’s reading. Why doesn’t this bitch send this stuff anonymously? When I was with the City, I once got a memo from the Fire Dept that had gone out to every department. One paragraph, three misspelled words. (Their instead of there, for one example). I circled them in red and sent it back with a note that said, “Spell check is not enough. Proofread before you send these out.”

“What kind of nasty, petty, poorly written (Did these people graduate from middle school to high school?) site is http://www.wonkette.com”

Liz, baby, the WWW is critical in front of every Interwebs address, thank you for maintinaing your high standards. You can even put the HTTP:// in front just to eliminate any and all confusion about what we are referring to

This might be a good/real pixxx of Elizabeth (Liz, the Bitch or waster of your tax dollars) Becton. Then again the site is called Thaindian so it just might be some cougar prowl site:

Anyway, she deserves homeless unemployment for the rest of her life for stealing taxpayers money. Or, she can go serve a tour of duty in Iraq to redeem herself. Her boss has no balls if she’s not fired with cause.

[re=343793]Bruno[/re]: wow. that’s spooky. the magick wonkette changed my post with just WWW to include the http://

*please keep using her full name. I would like this to be the #1 link associated with google searches related to her name, ensuring unemployable status for years to come.

Dear Liz,

I think we should sue you under restatement 90 promissory estoppel theory. Our reliance on you as a government employee creates the obligation that you are working every minute to earn your overinflated salary. Not only are your e-mails a waste of time and resources, you also are preventing potential commerce and much needed stimulation to an economy in when you took 20 e-mails to schedule a meeting between your boss and Chase bank. You are a puppet that could and will be replaced by a machine. Your job could be replaced easily with someone willing to work without opinions and/or entitlement. I cannot emphasize enough how meaningless your career is. Your boss makes decisions to which you have no influence, and your self-entitlement should not get in the way of deals between the government and private industry. You need to be fired immediately.

-The really important lawyer.

Again, the lady’s name is D____ C____ and she was NOT YET FIRED. She was SUSPENDED.

Holy shit. Shelley Sekula Gibbs was suspended?

Is there any chance to get a picture of the lovely Liz? I’m guessing a cross between Dick Cheney and Roseanne Barr. Of course, sometimes they surprise you, she might be an Angie Harmon type.

[re=343756]windupbird[/re]: well, fair enough, i was thinking about casual corner, or maybe dress barn woman. but i have a further question: why does this person have a job that pays $60k, and i–with decades of experience in office operations, scheduling, copy-writing, and all-around constituent service not have a job? if anyone has a lead, let me know. i am exremely respectable and responsible, and many times a lot of fun. I’d never let my boss down with something this ridiculous. resume and references available on request.

I have met Becton. No, she’s not a devil in real life. No horns, nothing – nada. Sorry to dash everyone’s hopes and dreams. In fact – she makes mean homemade brownies. Also, as for physical description – she is shortish, brown hair – from what I remember. Nothing out of the ordinary.

However, this is certainly not McDermott’s finest hour. In fact – Mcdermott’s old scheduler, who I’ll just refer to as “Bev” was indeed fantastic and ran a tight ship. I also never knew her to have a superiority and ego complex like Becton. I wish she was back…

[re=343953]darkstar[/re]: she’s not a devil in real life. No horns, nothing

Are you sure ? Did you check under her hair? Maybe give her a friendly tousle to feel around? The horns I’ve seen (on teevee) always seem to sprout from somewhere under the hair. She may be filing hers down a la Hellboy.

“Be careful or you might be outed as an evil mole”

I resemble that remark!

Lizzie, Lizzie, Lizzie! You get your panties get in a bunch so tightly and frequently that surgery is going to be required to remove them.

[re=343652]DustBowlBlues[/re]: Huh, are Seattle dykes all that bad? I’ve rather been avoiding them, preferring the lipstick lesbos if I have to be around any of them at all, so… le sigh… I go away for FOUR DAYS and this is what happens? What really pisses me off is that I spent the last few days just minutes from DC, packing my boyfriends’ parents up for an international move, and I prolly could have stopped by McDermott’s office on the Hill and met Liz, seeing as how I’m a constituent and all… wait, is that how it works? He DOES have an office in DC, right?

ms_mcgee

WHAT?! She called Wonkette readers narcissistic? Liz is a total and complete…oh look, a mirror…

thefrontpage

What the hell is wrong with this woman? She’s working in a Congressman’s office? What a juvenile, childish asshole! She needs to get a grip–and grow up. And get a sense of humor. And some insight into the zeitgeist. And some intelligence. And some diplomatic skills. And some writing skills. And a personality. What a doofus!

Mad Farmer Manifest

I may be base, illiterate, and narcissistic, but at least I’m smart enought to Google a phone number or buying some frosting.

Mad Farmer Manifest

[re=344668]Mad Farmer Manifest[/re]: Make that “buy” not “buying”. Just going out of my way to prove Lizzy’s point.

There have to be more emails like these out there somewhere. Dish, somebody, dish!
